When I first tried one out, I was amazed at what it could do, and just had to track one down for myself.
Korg Wavestation.Although long out of production, and with secondhand models still changing hands for fairly modest sums, the Wavestation has nevertheless gathered a dedicated cult following over the years, due to its unique architecture and sound possibilities. Although Korg bowed to consumer pressure and added these to the Wavestation EX about eighteen months later, and included them in the subsequent A/D and SR rack modules in 19 respectively, the range never sold in huge numbers.
When Korg first introduced their ground-breaking Wavestation keyboard in 1990, it was greeted with huge enthusiasm by most reviewers, but wasn't a great commercial success, largely due to its lack of built-in piano and drum sounds. Engineers with an exhaustive knowledge of the WAVESTATION made careful adjustments in order to obtain the sound of the original instrument, something that cannot be obtained simply by sampling the original sounds.Hands-on advice for getting the best from Korg's Wavestation series of synths. For the hardware, we analyzed the circuit diagrams of the original design, and completely replicated the circuitry in software down to the last detail. The new iWAVESTATION also reproduces in software every detail of each parameter. In the KORG Collection WAVESTATION providing the sounds from all PCM memories of the WAVESTATION. When you create a patch using multiple oscillators, the WAVESTATION lets you use vector synthesis to freely configure how the sound is modulated. The WAVESTATION differs most greatly from other synthesizers in how it lets you freely design and play wave sequences. A wave sequence cross-fades a variety of waveforms, smoothly connecting these waveforms to let you play them. The WAVESTATION was the first synthesizer that enabled wave sequencing.
